The UK's best interviewer and the UK's best actor. Fantastic.
R.I.P. MR Finney , fantastic Actor and the best Eberneezer Scrooge.
You're right about that
I totally agree, one of my all time favorite films.
People that refer to the deceased as Mr or Mrs always make me cringe a little. Apart from that I agree with your comment/direct message to the departed.
Yes I agree
Defo the best Scrooge for sure
Excellent interview. I miss him already.
His lesson lives on... 'Don't let the bastards grind you down'
@@c.j.griffin Albert and now Ann reinking? Wow, they died within a year of each other
RIP A great actor.
I loved him in Scrooge-- I watch the movie every Christmas season. RIP
He was the best scrounge
I agree, I watch that film every Christmas, it is so Christmassy and full of joy.
RIP Albert Finner. Always and forever Daddy Warbucks
Fabulous interview. Only 41 here. Frightening intelligence, style and maturity.
Great insight into his thought on Rep theater.
I know it's a role he played that is often over looked but I loved Finney in Burton's Big Fish. I thought he was brilliant and essential to that film. He played that part beautifully.
But will always remember him for Miller's Crossing. Byrne, Finney and Turturro. What a brillaint film.
Fabulous actor. One of the best the UK has produced.
"Jonny! You're exactly as big as I let you be and no bigger and don't forget it ever"
@@RagdollRalph delivered with perfection! One of the stand out lines in the movie....and there are many
@@davidcoxon4710 I think I first saw him in The Gathering Storm. I thought he made for a wonderful Churchill though it was a while since I saw it :)
Saturday night and Sunday morning.... GREAT movie from 1960 .. RIP Albert.
Very talented actor!! Best Poirot of the cinema!
Great actor. Loved his performance on Erin Brockovich
Maravilloso Albert Finney. Desde Buenos Aires, Argentina
Refused the KBE several times. Stuck to being a man’s man. Legend.
Loved him and Audrey Hepburn in 'Two for the Road'.
Ha! That's it! THAT'S the movie i saw him in! Thank you! Cheers
@@marypetrilli8672 You're very welcome. Cheers right back!
Ken Dalson One of my favorites
@@dwa22204 mine too. They made a handsome couple.
Two for the Road is my favorite Albert Finney movie. I have read that Stanley Donen considers it his favorite movie to have directed.
I also love Albert Finney’s portrayal of Winston Churchill in The Gathering Storm.
Very true as stated in this interview that Albert Fiinney was not type casted.
I am sad today to hear of his passing.
I had known he was sick but I believe he died from something other than the illness that had been referred to over the last few years.
RIP Mr Finney- your performances filled my life with joy and I thank you.
God Bless His Soul. RIP Albert Finney.
Thank you very much Eberneezer!❤ i will never forget you!
Brilliant actor.
RIP He will be sorely missed. They are not making them like this anymore. He is 100% right about rep being the best training.
Sadly, there isn't any Rep left, at least not as Albert Finney would have experienced it.
Very talented actor!!
Love Albert Finney as Scrooge in the musical Scrooge.
Thank you very much, Mr. Finney! R. I. P.....
Loved him,great great actor
Quite a fascinating mind. I recently watched an interview taped after the release of "Saturday Night Sunday Morning" when he was still in his early 20's. He was already beyond his years in mental prowess. There was nothing in the way of the giddy, callow youth in his bright base prime allured by the prospect of stardom.
Thanks for sharing this, will as all are saying be much miss. So many great movies...Saturday night Sunday morning (hope I got the title right), one of my favs..Night must fall (he was excellent and most frightening), Scrooge and so on.
Also my favourite depiction of Churchill playing alongside Vanessa Redgrave .
fantastic tribute, unlike two, more recent and contraversial efforts.
Totally agree! He was brilliant!
As far as I'm concerned Albert Finney was a genius.👌
RIP Albert,you was a Class Act!
Genius man. X
It just dawned on me that he played the Family retainer/ Ghillie in Skyfall! A real actor, who took his craft seriously.
Incredible that Mavis managed to put across the question at 4:36, 45 years ago. Fantastic interview, thanks.
Que gran actor 🎭 por Dios era maravilloso
Great interview by Mavis Nicholson. Wasn't Albert cute?
Thanks for your grest performances
Great as Scrooge!
Best Lawyer in the movie Erin Brockovich 😭🙏👍🏼
He was very convincing in Night Must Fall. Saw Scrooge (big Scrooge fan here, this is my fav musical version. Though I think this maybe the only musical movie version) and Murder on the Orient Express in the theaters, both great. I knew or should I say felt the one with Depp was going to poop. Saturday Night Sunday Morning was another great one. The Dresser, the list goes on and on.
Always one of my favourite actors - a great actor (a genius as others have said on here) and he was as someone else said on here - fantastic in the film Scrooge, the best film version of A Christmas Carol - the film was called Scrooge - I have ever seen, I absolutely love the film Scrooge. Also a very humble and noble man - he refused two honours.
Mavis Nicholson was a consummate interviewer on a par with Michael Parkinson. And still alive at 88.
His Churchill is for male actors what Meryl's Sophie is for female actors - so extraordinary it sets the bar by what all other performances are measured. The best Scrooge, the only Tom Jones, a formidable Poirot,
the best of the British actors of his generation, a towering talent.
he was great in erin brockovic.....father time will get everone.
Interesting, charismatic..fellow northerner...much missed.
from his voice you would never think he was born in salford in 1936
Drama trained
Very comfortable middle class part of Salford he once said..
Kenneth Branagh is the same hailing from Belfast minus that strong dialect!
@angliase If middle class, but very much lower middle class. His dad was a bookie and the family moved to a very ordinary pre-war 3 bed semi on the same road I lived on. My grandparents lived round the corner. The area was a mix of white collar, blue collar workers and tradespeople.
Two for the Road.
Between Two Ferns😂😂😂Love Albert Finney 💖💖💖😇
'TOM JONES' nobody has mentioned it so----THAT, is my favourite Role of Alberts. But then, he was great in all his roles, even if some of the films, were not to my liking.
The best performance by Albert Finney was in the movie A Very English Marrage
Covered extensively in my bio
I love that one and watch it quite often. 👍
I hope people read and like my biography of Albert, Strolling Player, which is available on Amazon
Read Blood of Heroes!
Albert Finney was never knighted which to my mind was so unfair. He was so much more talented than many actors who have been ennobled. He was a superb performer. I had the delight to see him live on stage in Present Laughter at the Manchester Royal Exchange. Mesmerising & charismatic actor. RIP Mr Finney.
Maybe he turned it down. People do.
He turned down a knighthood. And Glenda Jackson turned down a dame hood. They were born on the same day in the same year and both came from the working class... they despise the upper class establishment.
@@DeepScreenAnalysis not despise---just not part of it, or need to be
He was offered but refused a knighthood.
“Albie” was offered a Knighthood but refused it because he felt “it contributes to snobbery” among classes. LOVED him, especially Two Fir the Road”
He accent changed.
Seen this interview from the '60s? He's very Mancunian. th-cam.com/video/NRMCTgJnmTo/w-d-xo.html
Of course, he is an actor. I wonder how much "accent" training happens at RADA because we know a number of actors arrived at RADA with working-class accents ( Roger Moore, for one ) and left with a cultured middle class accent.
I thought so too - quite clipped and precise. Rather "actor-ly" and less "Northern" than his Salford colleague, Shelagh Delaney (she wrote A Taste of Honey and they collaborated on Charlie Bubbles).
Naturally.
Should of played Churchill more than
once
Myriam doing some serious flirting here.
Fun fact, I saw Mavis Nicholson do a Q&A in the early '90s, and she said interviewing someone was a bit like having sex with them...
Surely not, low and behold
I think what you’re getting at there is “method” acting?
Poirit was the famous BELGIAN detective, not french! lol
3:32 French detective?
don't let the bastards grind you down... it's all about having a good time the rest is just propaganda as far as I'm concerned...
Great not Grest
Lovely toupee
what--yours ? his hair hardly changed, all his life.
This interviewer is so prissy with no warmth, this is the way it was 44 years ago but makes todays interviewer so much better, loved Albert Finney.
this interviewer is horrible. I give him credit for not walking out on this stupid interview.
It does sound as if hes putting on a posh accent,!
